Technical summary
FBEI gear pumps (FB Bombas) in Piancó, Paraíba: sized for local industry, viscous fluids up to 350°C, API 676 compliance and in-house manufacturing in Cabreúva-SP at 2044 km. Typical critical-parts lead time: 96h to 7 days.


Cabreúva-SP → Piancó (2044 km via BR-101 (via PE)): origin of FB manufacturing since 1944, with vertical integration on a single site — CNC machining, assembly hydraulic bench and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — every unit ships with a traceable Data Book. In Piancó, Paraíba, FB Bombas serves local industry projects with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series — dedicated application engineering for sizing against the actual system curve, CRCC Petrobras certification and technical compliance with ASME B73.1 (centrifugal), API 676 (gear) and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 (fire fighting). The port cluster of Cabo De Santo Agostinho is 343 km from Piancó, generating economic spillover and correlated technical demand — common in pumping projects involving both cities. Piancó is served by the BR-101 (via PE) axis and also by highways BR-101, BR-230 and BR-104 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. The IBGE classification places Piancó in the Sertão Paraibano mesoregion — an area whose industrial profile directly influences demand for rotating equipment. FB Bombas application engineering owns technical specification in Piancó — from customer data sheet to the final Data Book delivered with the pump, through application review, FAT on the hydraulic bench and on-site SAT support. FB Bombas maintains an installed base in Piancó with a structure of spare parts (impeller, shaft, wear ring, cartridge mechanical seal, bearings) and scheduled preventive maintenance, with direct supply from the Cabreúva-SP factory. Piancó requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection.

FB Bombas maintains an installed base in Piancó with a structure of spare parts (impeller, shaft, wear ring, cartridge mechanical seal, bearings) and scheduled preventive maintenance, with direct supply from the Cabreúva-SP factory. Piancó requires pumping of óleos industriais and água industrial, a fluid set for which FB Bombas already has product series with field-validated material selection.
The pump-and-motor set shipped to Piancó undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report. FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Piancó, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. Piancó: óleos industriais and água industrial suggest materials such as austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion — a choice impacting both durability and cost of the pump-and-motor set. Typical applications mapped for Piancó include transferência geral and utilidades — each with its own requirements for NPSH, acceptable pulsation and start-up strategy. In viscous fluid services in Piancó, the FBE works where centrifugals lose efficiency: gear volumetric efficiency improves with viscosity, covering up to 100,000 SSU and 350 °C with a heating jacket — the typical case of óleos e água industrial. The design counterpart is mandatory — a discharge line protected by a relief valve, because positive displacement does not tolerate blockage.
Piancó: low fluid complexity, lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors. Piancó: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. A GDP of R$ 247 million (IBGE, 2023) with a services profile (37% of value added in 2021) places Piancó's local demand in the utilities field: building pressurization, light process water and fire-fighting systems. The fluid catalogue in Piancó (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. Use cases in Piancó (series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region. The portuario cluster around Piancó concentrates applications bunker (BPF fuel oil), marine cooling water and liquid-bulk discharge — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history. Given its state-level scale (among the 50 most populous cities in PB, maintains a relevant industrial base), Piancó concentrates projects of varying complexity — making room for both standardized ASME B73.1 solutions and engineered-to-order.
Typical transit time to Piancó: 72h to 7 days, depending on modal and dry season — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Piancó is BR-101 (via PE), totaling 2044 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Beyond the main route, Piancó is accessible via BR-101, BR-230 and BR-104 — options that provide redundancy in case of blockages or restricted operating windows. Dispatch from the Cabreúva-SP factory to Piancó occurs after bench hydraulic testing and Data Book verification — mandatory steps in FB's quality control.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Piancó — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. Operations and maintenance teams in Piancó count on FB Bombas technical training, structured in modules: sizing and characteristic-curve reading, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Classes can happen at the customer plant or at the factory in Cabreúva/SP, in-person or hybrid format.
Shipment is by road via BR-101 (via PE), with industrial packaging suited to the journey and tracking until delivery. Sizing, proposal and technical support run in parallel through remote channels — distance does not change the engineering scope, only the logistics planning, reflected in the proposal schedule.
Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Piancó with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.
Limits vary by series. FBE and FBEI: up to 350°C, provided a heating jacket and special sealing are used. FBOT: up to 350°C in thermal oil circuits. FBCN: up to 260°C, with materials and sealing suited to the service. Well-sized sealing and materials are a condition for safe operation in these ranges.

FB Bombas has been manufacturing industrial pumps since 1944, with over 82 years of continuous experience. The factory in Cabreúva/SP operates with engineering, manufacturing and testing under one roof, ensuring total quality control on every unit supplied to Piancó and all of Brazil.
The FB portfolio handles an extensive spectrum of fluids. The FBE series takes mineral and synthetic oils, asphalt (CAP), BPF fuel oils, petroleum derivatives, molasses, resins plus viscous chemical and hydraulic products; the FBCN series works with raw and treated water, process fluids and industrial effluents; the FBOT series is dedicated to thermal oil at elevated temperatures. Each case is sized considering viscosity, temperature and chemical compatibility.
Send flow, differential pressure, working temperature and fluid viscosity: with these four data points FB engineering calculates the right model, also validating available NPSH, operating regime and material compatibility. The service is free of charge for customers in Piancó.
The portfolio covers four in-house series: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for low-pulsation services, FBCN (standardized centrifugal) for water and light fluids and FBOT (dedicated centrifugal) for thermal oil — plus complete fire-fighting systems per NFPA 20 and NBR 16704.
